Maple syrup is a staple Canadian food, or so we say eh? On Apr. 13 and 14, the McCreary Maple Syrup Festival will take place at the community centre and the golf course. Both locations will have live bands performing.

The other day the unforeseen happened. I got stuck in the snow in the busiest street in town. I should have known better and not parked there. An embarrassing situation, but a kind young man, and someone who stopped and helped me on my way. In the evening I had an appointment, but fear took over (what if I got stuck again) and I cancelled my appointment.

Every so often, I have one of those days. They don’t come as often as they did 25 years ago, but they still come and now, since I am that much older, they are that much harder to cope with. I jokingly tell people that on those days, my time and resources are spread so thin that I feel like a pound of butter spread on a ton of dry rye bread. That’s a little extreme, I know—but I think you get the point, especially if you’ve had a few of those days recently.
